Married to his secret crush

Enigmatic and wealthy, Jun Zixuan is the epitome of perfection. He has everything and that includes a suicidal and scheming wife whom he hates to the core until one day when she pours a glass of juice on him, her poison-laced words and countless insults following behind. That's where it starts. He could not take his eyes off her. Was he a masochist? What just happened?! With beauty, brains, and an endless bank balance, she has been living her best life until she is assassinated on her birthday. Waking up in the body of a scheming and penniless woman was more unacceptable for her and to top it off, she has a husband who happens to be her old friend. Just that, he acts like an entirely different person now. She settles on a master plan. Lose weight first, make money, get a divorce, settle the people who killed her, and find a way to go back to her brother. But wait...why is this cold and unapproachable husband acting like a white lotus? What is she going to do with her plans if this stunning husband refuses to let her go? ... "I want a divorce," She indifferently said. "Fine," the man coldly responded without any shift in his expression. One month later: "When are we getting divorced?" She asked calmly, not wanting to deal with a moody husband anymore. She just wanted to be done with her revenge first, then find her brother and live a carefree life like before. His gaze darkened, "The procedure is going on." Three months later: "Jun Zixuan, where the heck is our divorce paper?!" She finally lost her patience and snapped at him. One of his arms wrapped around her waist as he pulled her closer, "Are you that eager to leave me?" he asked, sadness flickered on his face despite that indifferent look. "Yes." "Oh? So sad," The man narrowed his eyes, his lips tilted up in a crafty smile before he continued, "The lawyers said that our case is a complicated one, it might take them a lifetime to draft the divorce papers."

Past regrets

At Shen Lihua's villa. 

The atmosphere around the dining table was stiff as usual as Shen Lihua quietly had her dinner on one side while Jun Zishen sat on the other end of the table. 

It has been days since Shen Lihua let Jun Zishen inside the house and he did his best as he persisted in trying to bring her walls down. He tried to cook good food for her, learning it from internet, he would get her flowers/gifts but they would usually end up in the trash. He will find random topics to start a conversation with her but she will chip it down with one-liners. 

As Jun Zishen quietly ate, certain thoughts kept occupying his mind. Like Yu Mei told him, he was willing to persist, to go through anything if it meant to have Shen Lihua open up to him. But, there were these rare times when he wondered if he was too late and if he will ever be able to reach her.
